In the Manifesto Of Futurism, by F.T. Marinetti, there is a sentence which reads "...But we want no part of it, the past, we the young and the strong Futurists! ". The Futurists loved speed, noise, machines, pollution, and cities; they embraced the exciting new world that was then upon them rather than hypocritically enjoying the modern world’s comforts while loudly denouncing the forces that made them possible. For someone to do something like that could never happen I believe. To forget the past is to forget how the world was brought together, where you stand now and how you were brought into this world. In his manifesto, the eighth number states " Why should we look back, when what we want is to break down the mysterious doors of the impossible? " I believe to break the ' mysterious doors of the impossible' we need to first learn from the past and take what we know and improved on that. If we forget the past all we are doing is starting over.
